Have you heard the news?  Avvo has launched a new blog, Lawyernomics, focused on legal marketing and practice management.  My welcoming blog post really explains it all, so please check out Lawyernomics and let us know what you think.

What does this mean for the Avvo Blog?  Well, increasingly, we have struggled with the identity of the Avvo Blog because it has been one part law marketing/management, one part health marketing/management, one part corporate mouthpiece and and one part public policy.  That’s a lot of parts, and we had many lawyers tell us they wanted more of the law marketing/management part.

To oblige, we built Lawyernomics and all of the lawyer parts will go over there.  The medical parts will get their own home soon enough as well.  The Avvo Blog will then focus on the Avvo corporate and public policy discussions that don’t fit squarely into legal or medical.  Sound like a plan?

One thing:  When you visit Lawyernomics, please check out our “Search Engine Marketing & Social Media Cheat Sheet for Lawyers.”  It’s free, and the purpose of the guide is to provide lawyers and legal marketers with a complete overview of online marketing best practices and tactics.  Highlights include how to:

• Leverage SEO to attract new clients
• Profitability use paid advertising
• Tap into the power of social media

Our Cheat Sheet is the only time I will encourage you to cheat — it won’t even affect your Avvo Rating. Seriously though, it’s a great guide from a team that knows a thing or two about SEO and Social Media . . . and you can’t beat the price.

Regards,
Mark
